Night Labyrinth

I opened my mouth in shock and looked at him in disbelief.

"No, wait a minute, wait a minute..." I suddenly held my chest and took a deep breath. This person only said a few words, but brought a huge amount of information that I couldn't accept.

The man opposite grabbed my hand, as if to give me some support.

"Lu Fei, I know it's hard for you to accept it for a while. Please calm down first, calm down and listen to me slowly, okay?"

I held his hand tightly back, almost gritted my teeth to try to calm myself down, and then I nodded to signal that he could speak.

"Last time when you went to Beijing to find her, everything you saw was staged by us. It wasn't for you... It wasn't at first..." The man paused, "I like men and I have a boyfriend. But My family wanted me to go on a blind date, but I didn’t agree after being urged many times. This time they introduced me to a girl from He Lin’s company. In order to completely get rid of these things, I just wanted to pull He Lin to play a play with me, so Said she was my girlfriend, so that the family would not introduce girls to me in the future...At least I can stop going on blind dates for a while..."

I listened intently to what he said, as if listening to the most important thing ever to me.

"So I told my family that, and in order to increase the authenticity, I picked up He Lin on purpose that day when I got off work, and kissed her in front of her colleagues. I didn't expect you to come to her at that time ..."

"Then your house, the walls, the photos... and the bed, the pillows on the bed..." I was so sad that I couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

"That's all prepared in advance. A colleague will come to He Lin that night. We are indeed roommates, but she lives in one and I live in the other."

"Why didn't you tell me! Why! Why are you lying to me!" I shook my hand away from the man and yelled at him viciously.

Everyone in the café turned to look at us, but I didn't care.

"I'm sorry..." The man stood up and pressed my shoulders with both hands, "Actually, I wanted to tell you that day after I got back to the house, but He Lin stopped me."

"Why did she do this..." My tears finally flowed out, my face was cold, "Why did she treat me like this..." At this moment, I could only ask these words repeatedly.

"Actually, she is protecting you."

"What?" I looked at the man puzzled.

"She saw how difficult it was for me to go all the way as a comrade, so she didn't want to drag you down this road." The man sighed.

"What do you mean? Does she like me? How do you know I like her? Why do you all know everything, but I don't know anything." I was incoherent, and I no longer knew what I was talking about.

"He Lin has always known that you like her. Even when I just met you that day, I quickly noticed that you liked her."

"Hehe, is it so obvious?" I laughed back from grief, with tears all over my face, it must be extremely funny.

The man picked up two tissues and stuffed them into my hands, "He Lin is also interested in you, otherwise why would she call you that night."

Hearing what he said, I suddenly cried even harder.

Everyone in the coffee shop stared at me, and the man simply sat in a row with me and hugged me to his chest.

I just wailed like this for several minutes, until I was crying until I was almost out of breath, and finally stopped with sobs.

"She... how did she get away?" My teeth chattered, and it was difficult to say every word.

"Fall off the balcony..." The man hesitated, "On the spot..."

I clenched one hand into a fist and bit it against my mouth, trying not to cry out loud, "Why is this happening?"

"10 nights ago, He Lin went out to dinner with friends. Later, I received a call and said that He Lin had drunk too much and asked me to pick it up. When I went, she was leaning on the sofa drunk. I asked others what was wrong. , they told me that He Lin failed to confess his love in truth or dare, and then he drank a lot..."

Is it about me?

Is it because of me that she drank too much and got into trouble?

"I helped her back. She should have listened to what she said along the way. She should have confessed earlier. When I got home, I put her on the bed in the bedroom and wanted to pour her a glass of water." The man's voice Lowered down, "I came back with the water glass, and saw her standing on the balcony, looking out with her hands on the railing, saying, 'Where are the stars? Why don't I see the stars'. I put the water glass down and wanted to pull it out. She came back, but when I looked up...she just... fell...I ran to the balcony and it was too late..."

Blame me!

It's all my fault!

If I hadn't said anything to watch the stars when I went that day, she wouldn't have run to the balcony in the middle of the night!

Obviously I realized that the balcony was not safe that day, why didn't I say a few more words of warning at that time!

I always thought she wouldn't remember what I said before, but I didn't expect that I just said casually that she would remember!

"It's all my fault! If only I agreed to her..." I grabbed my hair, "I thought she was teasing me, I thought she was just taking a big risk because she lost, and she told me she would I dated her, and I thought it was just a joke when I heard her drunk, and I lied to him that I had a boyfriend... The last thing she said to me was asking if I really have a boyfriend? I ended up with She said that I have, I said He Lin you are a bastard!"

The man broke away from my hand that was pulling my hair, and held it tightly, "Don't do this, it's not your fault, it's all predestined."

"No, I said she was a jerk, I was! I'm such a jerk!" I struggled.

Lu Fei, didn't you always want to see He Lin lose control for you once?

Didn't you always want to see her freaking out over you?

It turns out that you really did it, but you can't see it!

Just this time, you killed her!

It was you who pushed her to death with your own hands!

Are you satisfied now?

"Don't say that, no one could have predicted this." The man comforted me, and his eyes turned red, "Actually, I have been thinking about it since then, if I could have brought He Lin back sooner? But It was a little short, why didn't I do it, I really deserve to die!"

yes!It's all life!

None of us wanted this to happen, but none of us could stop it.

"Did she...have you said anything about me before?" I finally calmed down gradually.

The man took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and he handed the note in front of me, "This is her diary and password on the Internet, I think she should have a lot to say to you."

I took the note and touched the handwriting on it with trembling fingers. It was He Lin's handwriting. The address contained what she wanted to say to me, and the password... was my birthday.

"I took this from her desk. A few days before the accident, she decided to contact you and wanted to explain the truth to you, but she was afraid that you would not accept it. She said that your lunar birthday will be here in a few days. I want to post this to you, and I want a bouquet of flowers. She said that she hopes you can understand all this and accept her after reading it...but she didn't expect..."

"What did she say in it?"

I clenched the note tightly, feeling tears were about to flow down again, I tried my best to sniff my nose.

"I don't know, I haven't seen it." The man replied.

I nodded, looked at the man opposite and said, "Thank you, Lin Yue."

"No, these are all what I should do. Besides, He Lin helped me a lot before." Lin Yue tilted his head and coughed, covering up his sadness. After speaking, he stood up from beside me, "I miss you You may need to be alone for a while."

"If you need anything, call me at any time, you also know my number just now." Lin Yue called the waiter to check out, then he picked up the coat that was placed next to him, turned around and waved to me , "Then I'll go first."

"Yeah." I nodded while holding the note.

Lin Yue walked towards the door of the coffee shop, and when he was approaching the door, he stopped suddenly, turned his head and looked at me with a very sad expression, "By the way, for the game that night, what He Lin chose was not a big adventure, but a sincere one." talk."

I stared blankly at him, watching him walk out of the coffee shop and across the street corner until his back disappeared.

I just sat there motionless.

Then in the next moment, I stood up suddenly, and rushed to the nearest Internet cafe with my bag in hand.

Turning on the computer and opening the browser, I almost entered the website with trembling hands, and then entered my birthday.

I successfully logged in, and I saw a screen full of small sunflowers blooming on the page, which is the kind of flower she once gave me on my birthday.

My eyes are fixed on every word above, for fear of dropping a tiny punctuation mark.

He Lin, I finally received what you wanted to say to me.
